So I decided to proceed with my fake review website, I need some help with a rating system...

Even though the reviews are humorous, I want them to be legit. One tag line I've been playing with is FAKE CRITICS REAL REVIEWS or FAKE REVIEWERS REAL REVIEWS. I feel like I should have some sort of rating at the end. I'm more comfortable with letter grades, like A B- F, although I'm not sure that distribution really holds up with all the grade inflation. I could just do a 1-10 rating or number of stars, but that seems too simple. I'd like to do something a bit more creative, like Good, Bad, So Bad it's Good, but am having trouble fleshing it out. I could do something with snacks, but the average reader won't necessarily know that Twizzlers are better than Candy Corn. I'd prefer for it to be humorous but also convey information. Please recommend the rating system you prefer, and new ideas are certainly welcome.
Hopefully I will launch on April Fool's Day, when Walt Disney reviews Dumbo.

You can do different snacks but something like one hotdog, two popcorn, three nachos, etc. -- nm

Great idea! Maybe measure it in Kubriks vs. Woods or something to drive home that the reviews are real. Or maybe a distinctive item from their movies. -- nm*
